Nestled in the heart of Festac Town, Lagos, Nazareth Nursery and Primary School stands as a symbol of faith, knowledge, and character formation. Founded in January 1983 by Dr. Anthony Cardinal Okogie, the school was established to meet the growing demand for a Catholic-centered, high-quality education. Today, it continues to flourish under the dedicated management of the Religious Sisters of Charity, staying true to its mission of holistic child development—spiritually, morally, academically, and socially.
For over 40 years, Nazareth School has nurtured young minds, shaping them into disciplined, confident, and responsible individuals. Our commitment to excellence ensures that every child is given the right foundation to succeed, both in academics and in life.
Starting with 500 pupils in its early days, Nazareth School has grown into a prestigious institution, recognized for its outstanding academic results, discipline, and moral values. Through the dedication of the Religious Sisters of Charity, our school has continued to evolve, maintaining its tradition of excellence while adapting to modern educational needs.
The 40th Anniversary Celebration in October 2023 was a testament to the school’s enduring legacy. As we look to the future, we remain steadfast in our commitment to nurturing generations of learners who will contribute meaningfully to society.
At Nazareth School, education is more than just classroom learning—it is the formation of the whole child. Inspired by our motto, “To Grow in Wisdom, Age, and Grace,” we instill in our pupils a strong sense of purpose, discipline, and faith, preparing them to be future leaders in a rapidly changing world.
To provide a holistic education that empowers every child to achieve self-actualization and uphold the dignity of the human person.
To build a society where every child, regardless of social background, has access to quality, functional, and value-based education.
